Testimonials
Kerstin Illing, HORSETALENTS arranged for me to view and ride a number of horses from reputable, highly respected professional sport barns and breeding establishments in Germany. Kerstin had selected horses to the specifications I said I was looking for. Kerstin has wealth of knowledge about both sport and breeding horses. I found her to be very professional, discreet and honest. I found the ’special horse‘ I went to find. Kerstin organised the export proceedings and vetting after I returned to New Zealand. Awesome!

I would not hesitate to recommend HORSETALENTS services to anyone. Kerstin takes the time to source exactly what you are looking for, not just presenting the horses that are currently for sale to you. Once you find the right horse she can also assist with everything in relation to vetting, x rays, transport, agistment etc. She makes purchasing a horse in Europe a most pleasant & exciting experience & I look forward to the next trip!

During my visit with Kerstin I was able to be in contact with the best of Holsteiner breeders. We have acquired some foals and mares, and we are very proud of our purchase. Kerstin handles everything with a lot of commitment, including export documents.

It is not easy to find the horse one is looking for. In my case I met Kerstin, an honest and direct person, who understood very well what I was looking for, which is the most important thing. She accompanied me during the entire process. I am happy with the selection we made and in addition we became very good friends!

I found Kerstin through her web site www.horsetalents.com and then discovered that we had a lot of horsepeople friends in Brazil, including my son´s trainer Jose Roberto Reynoso Filho. When I decided to buy my son Emyr Neto (13 years old) the mare that would be his partner from Children to Young Rider I’ve sent Kerstin a video clip of my son jumping, my budget and the mare characteristics I was looking for. She has chosen many good mares, but from the beginning she told us her preferred one was Cherie and she was right. The 8 years old Holsteiner mare with a good pedigree (Cashandcarry x Calido I), very easy to ride, jumping already 1,45m was the perfect match for my son. In the first official competition they’ve participated, the CSN Agromen class 1,20m for children, they’ve cleared the 3 days and won the final day with the fastest time in the jump off.
